I don't think he has talked about an offline game since the 90s. I just don't think that is even on his radar anymore. He seems to think the time for that has passed.

I am always looking for more sorts of non combat interactions in role playing games, but in MMOs I don't know how you will keep the combat people from being jerks to the non-combat people outside of rather silly artificial systems like teleporting insta-kill guards. I guess you just have to limit the PvP to certain zones or even just keep it in arenas or whatever.

I don't think the average Farmville player will take kindly to being murdered and having the turnip field razed.
